promise me just one thing by Angela Thomasremember that day we sat on the stoop
and you asked me what i was afraid
of, why i kept my cards so close
to my chest? do you remember
what i said? just that i was afraid
of falling in love with you and getting
hurt, again. i didn't think i could take
it another time, not the way i felt.
you promised. you promised to never
make me feel that way. you hugged
me and you promised. now, i'm sitting
here with a heart that feels like it's full
of lead, eyes that won't stop crying, feet
that don't want to move, and hands
that can't sit still. this is what i was afraid of. 11/13/2009 Posted on 11/13/2009 Copyright © 2024 Angela Thomas
